horizontal and vertical axis wind turbine

Wind energy is the first thing that comes to our mind when we talk about ways of generating new, renewable clean power. Large wind farms, using HAWTs of the type shown in Picture 1. are becoming an increasingly important source of electricity production with major horizontal axis units producing substantial quantities during peak demand periods and throughout areas where they can be grouped.citations used In recent years large H.A.W.T.s (Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines) have become very popular to generate electricy in a more cost-effective manner at Sites for heavy applications such as numerous multiple megawatt Earth power loads are located close by built up locations or rocky ridgelines way above rivers & lakes Sea ports). These turbines are comprised of a rotor and blades that rotate about an axis parallel to the ground. These are built to gather winds from a particular direction, and thus they perform really well in those places where there is enough wind. There are many advantages HAWTs have over their counterpart, vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) the most prominent of which is there ability to produce more power and longevity.

HAWTs are more powerful and can produce electricity even at low wind speeds of 4-5 meters per second. In contrast, VAWTs require stronger winds to reach their maximum operating speed, and are therefore not ideal for locations with lower or erratic wind speeds. Furthermore, since the blades are positioned vertically together they have less aerodynamics noise than VAWTs do- this makes HAWT a better choice for residential areas troubled with general means of audible detraction. Also, HAWTs installation and maintenance compared to VAWT are less complicated based on the clearness of their design.

The Solution to The Future of Sustainable Energy?

Climate change is not waiting to knock at our door, so the need for sustainable energy solutions became more pertinent than ever. HAWTs are now being hailed as an essential component for shifting towards renewable energy. This will no doubt be partly due to the continuing improvements in technology which have led to HAWTs becoming increasingly more efficient but it also reflect s changes that are happening all across our world as various systems, including energy generation sectors evolve. Indeed, China is just one out of many countries which has undertook ambitious plans to switch completely or for the most part towards renewable energy sources and HAWTs are expected to play a significant role in reaching those goals around the world such as in Europe and United States. In addition, advances in battery technology now mean that wind-generated electricity can be stored making HAWTs an even more attractive proposition.
